This has made us more confident about stopping HS2, although the poll only asks if people want HS2 to go across the Chilterns, and not if they support the whole idea.

3 of us get days off school due to wind damage to roof

Posted by Ed on Thursday, January 5, 2012, In : School 
Ed, Chris and Alex have already had Wednesday 4th and Thursday 5th January off school due to wind damage. There were high winds in Amersham on Tuesday 3rd January which tore off materials on the roof of the school hall at Dr Challoner's Grammar School.

"We cannot go to school because the loose material on top of the school hall may blow off and potentially cause injury. Construction workers...

Ed goes on first high speed rail link to see the Gadget Show LIVE 2011

Posted by Ed on Tuesday, April 19, 2011, In : High Speed 2 
Ed, the manager of the Junior Bucks Stop HS2 Organization, went on the first high speed rail link up to The NEC in Birmingham to see the Gadget Show LIVE 2011 over the weekend. He said "The first high speed rail link between London and Birmingham only took 1hr 10 mins on the way and 1hr 30 mins on the way back. The time went very quickly and there is no good reason for a new high speed rail link. A lot of countryside had already had to be destroyed to build the first high speed rail link and ...
